(35) when detecting at the position of the first kind of icon and the second kind of icon and identifying as selection on the quick control interface, switching to the control interface corresponding to the single light or the group.

(36) As FIG. 2 and FIG. 8 shown, the quick control interface of smart lights can be displayed by side sliding. In the quick control interface, the existing group and lights of the group can be displayed, and lights scanned nearby can also be displayed, if scanned lights are not in the group, they will be displayed continually under the list. Lights of the group display different color based on whether it is contained by other groups, it is green if contained by two or more than two groups, it is white if contained by only one group, and it is yellow if not contained by any group. Users can click group or single light in this interface to directly switch control the group or light, light-adjusting tab is no need to be exit and scanned again to connect, which is convenient and quick.

(37) As an optional embodiment, the pre-set gesture operation is identification information that touch point of pre-set quantities is detected and movement to pre-set direction exceeds pre-set distance.

(38) As an optional embodiment, on the main interface, if long press is detected at the position of one first kind of icon, and it is dragged to the position of another first kind of icon, it is judged that two corresponding single lights are combined into a group; one second kind of icon is newly established to correspond to a new group, the new group comprises the two single lights.

(39) As an optional embodiment, on the main interface, if long press is detected at the position of one first kind of icon, and it is dragged to the position of another first kind of icon, it is judged that the single light corresponding to the first kind of icon is added into the group corresponding to the second kind of icon.

(40) As an optional embodiment, on the main interface, if long press is detected at the position of the second kind of icon, it is judged as group members deletion and group name editing, and displaying a group editing page, the group editing page comprises a group name editing column and single light members displayed as the first kind of icon, displaying a delete icon on the right corner of the first kind of icon corresponding to each single light member, when clicking the delete icon is detected, the corresponding single light member is deleted from the group; and saving the information of the group name editing column as name of the group.

(41) As FIG. 1 shown, in the embodiment, smart light devices are displayed in the interface by way of icon, users can long press the first kind of icon and drag to another first kind of icon to form a new group. Other lights can be continually added to the group if they are continually dragged to the bluetooth light group. Long pressing the second kind of icon can display all single light members contained in a group, and group can be named or some single light members can be deleted. This operation mode enables the group to be simple, direct, convenient, and it is more close to operation habit of uses.

(42) As an optional embodiment, the main interface also comprises a share button, when detecting and judging the share button is clicked on the main interface, displaying a share page, the share page comprises a share light button and an acquiring light button;

(43) when detecting and judging the share light button is clicked on the share page, real-time uploading the control information of all of parts of selected smart lights into a server, after network name information is shared, all related information of lights operation will be acquired from the server corresponding to the network name.

(44) when detecting and judging the acquiring light button is clicked on the share page, acquiring shared network name information, and synchronously acquiring shared control information of smart lights from the server based on the network name information. FIG. 9 is an optional operation flow diagram of a light share authority management.

(45) As FIG. 4 shown, users can share group to other mobile phones by scanning a two-dimensional code. Users' operation of light group will upload to a server, when users share single light and/or group in this way, mobile phones scanning a two-dimensional code will read network name information in the two-dimensional code and acquire control information of single light and/or group from the server. And every time main interface of APP is opened, information will be synchronized the first time, such that the control information synchronization of lights in users' different mobile phones can be kept.

(46) As FIG. 4 shown, users can click “share lights” and select “complete sharing”, “share light group” or “share lights” to share. Through authority control of share, users can flexibly limit the authority scope that different mobile phones control light group to adapt to application of more occasions. And for “share light group”, users can select required group and generate corresponding two-dimensional code; for “share lights”, users can select from all searched lights and generate corresponding two-dimensional code. “Complete sharing” means group information of shared mobile phone is completely synchronized with that of mobile phone acquiring sharing, “share light group” means control information of shared single lights or group can be acquired, that is, situation of lights in home can be remote informed, however, new lights cannot be added and group information cannot be edited and changed; “share lights” means shared single lights can be acquired, and also information cannot be edited and changed.

(47) As an optional embodiment, a hover button is preset, if click operation is detected on the hover button, sending full open or full closed switch light configuration information to all single lights and groups; if double click operation is detected on the hover button, displaying the quick control interface; if long press operation is detected on the hover button, locking or unlocking the position of the hover button; under the locking state of the position of the hover button, if sliding operation to a first pre-set direction is detected on the hover button, correspondingly adjusting the color temperature of the connected single light or group; if sliding operation to a second pre-set direction is detected on the hover button, correspondingly adjusting the brightness of the connected single light or group; under the unlocking state of the position of the hover button, if sliding operation is detected on the hover button, the display position of the hover button is changed with the displacement of sliding.

(48) As FIG. 5 shown, lights can be controlled by a hover button on the desktop, double clicking the hover button in FIG. 5 will enter into control interface of lights. When activated hover button is clicked, functions such as full open or full closed of all connected smart lights in the same network can be controlled.

(49) The improvements of above embodiments are as follows:

(50) 1. Group can be quickly established by dragging single lights, and there is no need to have too much interface selection.

(51) 2. The connected single lights or group can be quickly switched by side sliding switch, and there is no need to connect smart lights again.

(52) 3. Users can set brightness and color temperature of each single lights or single light members in group by user-defined scene mode, and combined scene can be realized.

(53) 4. Information of single lights or group can be shared by scanning two-dimensional code, such that control information of single lights and group can be synchronized in different mobile phones.

(54) 5. Through authority control of share, users can flexibly limit the authority scope that different mobile phones control light group to adapt to application of more occasions.

(55) 6. Lights can be controlled conveniently by the hover button, and there is no need to enter into APP to directly control the light, which is simple and convenient.

(56) Above disclosure are merely some preferred embodiments of the present invention, it shall be noted that for those skilled in the art various changes or equivalent replacement of these features and embodiment can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
